Join Mullen’s Equestrian in congratulating our intern, Chevi, for her outstanding performance at the New Mexico 4-H State Rodeo. Chevi placed 2nd in barrels, 3rd in all-around barrels, and 3rd in all-around poles.

Her commitment to both our program and her personal development is truly inspiring. Chevi exemplifies what it means to be a patient rider; when her horse doesn’t understand, she seizes the opportunity to refine her skills.

Chevi always puts the horse’s best interest first. We admire her as both a professional equestrian and an exceptional person.

We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who came out to support Chevi, especially her mentor Ronda from Remedy Reins. Thank you for your time and for sharing your expertise.

Working with young horses is tough.

And not just in the "hold on and hope you stay in the saddle" kind of way.

No one warns you how challenging it truly is. How often you'll doubt yourself, wondering: Am I doing this right? Am I moving too fast? Too slow? Is this too much? Not enough? You'll constantly be questioning your approach, trying to figure out the best way forward while tuning out the opinions of the trainer down the road or the livery next door, who throws judgmental glances every time you do groundwork.

No one tells you how, on some days, you'll feel like you're failing. You'll question if this horse would be better off with someone else, convincing yourself you're either wasting their potential or outright ruining them. After all, there are four-year-olds excelling in young horse classes while yours is still struggling to trot in a straight line.

No one tells you how attached you'll become. This horse is your baby, maybe one you helped bring into the world. Every setback feels personal, like a wound to your heart. You care so deeply about their well-being that it physically hurts when things go wrong. You’ll also become fiercely protective—God help anyone who dares to criticize your horse.

No one tells you how humbling, even brutal, these horses can be. They'll expose every weakness you have and practically shout it from the rooftops. While they are forgiving, they have a way of knocking you down a peg, reminding you there's always more work to be done.

No one tells you how these horses will change you. They'll force you to look inwards, to question everything you thought you knew. If you thought you had everything figured out, this horse will quickly show you that you don't. But they'll also ignite in you a fierce determination to prove everyone wrong and show them what you saw in this horse from the very beginning.

No one quite tells you how difficult young horses can be, but anyone who's been through it knows...

As tough as they are, they’re absolutely worth it.
